NEW: Vansah MCP is now available as of the 13th of August 2026
Using Vansah MCP with AI agents
Vansah MCP allows AI agents such as ChatGPT and Claude to securely work with your Vansah testing information through normal conversation. Instead of moving between screens to find information or complete routine testing activities, you can describe what you need and allow the agent to assist you.
How it works
Your organisation connects Vansah MCP to an AI agent. You then sign in with your Atlassian account and approve access.
The agent can only access the Vansah workspaces, Jira projects, and testing information that your account is permitted to use. Your existing Vansah and Jira permissions continue to apply.
Available capabilities
Vansah MCP gives your AI agent access to the following testing capabilities. The agent selects the appropriate capability based on what you ask it to do.

Using normal language
You do not need to know technical commands or how Vansah MCP works behind the scenes. Describe the testing outcome you want in normal language. Include relevant context such as the project, Jira work item, requirement, test case, release, sprint, or test plan when it is available.
The agent will use Vansah MCP to locate the relevant information and complete the requested activity.
Reviewing information
You can use Vansah MCP to review existing testing information before deciding what to do next.
This can help you:
Understand the current test coverage for a requirement
Identify missing scenarios or testing gaps
Check whether suitable test cases already exist
Review the progress of a test plan or test execution
Summarize results for a project, release, sprint, or Jira board
Reviewing information does not change your Vansah data.
Creating and updating information
Vansah MCP can create or update information when you ask the agent to do so.
Before confirming a change, check that the agent has selected the correct project, Jira work item, test case, folder, or test plan. For larger changes, review the proposed content before allowing it to be added to Vansah.
Access and security
Vansah MCP uses your authenticated Atlassian account. It does not give the agent access beyond your existing Vansah and Jira permissions.
Do not share passwords, access tokens, secrets, or sensitive information in your conversation.
Getting better results
Clearly describe the testing outcome you need.
Include the relevant project or Jira work item when possible.
Ask the agent to review existing coverage before creating new test cases.
Review proposed content before making large changes.
Complete complex work in stages: review, propose, approve, and create.
Troubleshooting
If the agent cannot find the requested information, confirm that:
You are signed in with the correct Atlassian account.
You have access to the required Vansah workspace and Jira project.
The Jira project is enabled for Vansah.
The requested test case, Jira work item, folder, or test plan exists.
If your session has expired, reconnect Vansah MCP and sign in again.
